For your best 2022 travel experiences, the key is flexibility — especially with your time and budget.
Paying for refundable flights and travel insurance is well worth the expense, given the erratic nature of travel today. For travel insurance, Cancel for Any Reason coverage is the safest option. Most standard policies don’t cover illness or pandemic-related delays. Renting a car? Look for a “book now, pay later” option.
Book early if your travel dates are fixed, or if you’re going to a place where condominiums are the prime lodging, like Mexico or Hawaii — now is not too early for summer.
Research your destination’s vaccine and testing regulations as well as your airline’s policy (read that confirmation email!). Build in time for testing and quarantines on both ends of your trip. Double-check lodging and sightseeing details.
Use government websites for the most current information on regulations and finding local coronavirus testing, if needed, at a pharmacy or through your hotel concierge.
Keep abreast of coronavirus infection rates and evolving protocols at both your departure and arrival destinations and be ready to adjust your plans on the fly.

Contact your consulate and/or local authorities to confirm your nationality’s entry and/or any changes to travel requirements before travelling.
